There should not be a need for octane boosters, unless an older engine designed for an octane that is no longer available. Over time the octane of fuel has been lowered.

High quality octane boosters can deliver the octane numbers they claim, however there are also a lot of these products on the market which don't deliver anywhere near their claims.
Octane boosters have higher boost on turbocharged vehicles. Popular Octane boosters available in market 1) MMT(Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) 2) TEL (Tetra-ethyl lead) 3) Ferrocene 4) Aromatic Alcohols such as Toluene, Xylene, Benzine etc. and 5) Ethanol
